year but the numbers might have been higher had it not been for the fiscal battles in washington making people cautious. america and the national association polk 1,000 consumers for their annual holiday shopping survey, 13% of respondents plan to increase holiday spending this season compared to a 12% rise last year, 32% of those polled planned to spend less this year and that is an improvement of 38% who said that last year. and note that the increase in the percentage of people who plan to increase spending grew at a slower pace than a year before in the survey suggests a washington flights over spending and the debt ceiling with 51% of those polled saying the fight had affected their holiday spending plans. >> the responses to the question

about the budget battles suggest this created or increased economic insecurity by some americans, economic insecurity tends to depress consumer spending. >> the group's forecast holiday spending overall will rise 3.5% to 4% this season. same forecast as last year. connell: black friday and cybermonday deals are not only for its tvs and tablets and whacked off but the travel industry wants a piece of the action too. dagen: with more on the travel deals we are joined by the host of the travel channel hotel. good to see you. same thing with retail. travel deals that you will find out there, are they really deals? are you getting a bargain? >> their deals and what happens is it allows the hotel industry

to take a breath and realize after the holidays things slow down. typically january, february, march. you are getting great deal. four or five years ago the brands started to look at this to see if we could take part in it and it has been unbelievable. it went to one or two motels doing it, now everyone is doing it. connell: europeans love to come here and get a good exchange rate and do some shopping. they get a good deal in new york. any reason for us to leave here and travel somewhere else and go shopping, seems ridiculous. >> not so much to go shopping on black friday. really to shop online for traveling january, february or march, good way to fill of rooms. dagen: where do you get the best deals? are we talking about destination vacations like in the island cruises, miami, hawaii.

where do you find the best travel deals, at hotels and all in packages? >> there are great deals and travel agents doing great deals in mexico, the caribbean, new york, the benjamin hotel offering 1993 january, february or march. dagen: and lexington. >> whether people are willing to spend and what have you to economic trends, getting a little better and still very careful how they're spending money. >> people are careful land they are not looking for the amenities, not looking for bigger swedes. looking for valu. really looking to be taken care of. i am sure you travel a lot. you want a clean room, friendly service, nice comfortable bed.

dagen: are they -- hotels more attuned to that? in terms of -- the overall business is a little soft in terms of hotel and travel industry. >> depends on where you are in the market. it is soft and that is why black friday and cybermonday are a great way to get better deals out there. not all lee shop presents for someone else but for yourself saying your family is on vacation. dagen: do you really buying a vacation? my relatives are finicky and picky. you by the medication they won't go on it. you got to hold their hand and go with them. i don't want to be bothered with that. just wouldn't go, did you ever take that trip to miami that i bought you and it is three years later. >> take it yourself. there are a lot of values.

they may have seen 30% or 40% increase on travel and 30% off, hotels around the country doing it. it is a great time to buy travel. connell: people travel here, can do a lot of shopping in doors. dagen: the trump hotels, they are really beautiful hotels. thank you. please come back. stocks looking to extend record-breaking runs but energy stocks are taking a hit, nicole petallides on the floor of thh stock exchange. nicole: good morning, we have had a great run seven weeks 0, records again this week, even the nasdaq breaking its own record from yesterday, the dow jones industrials up 25 points, 0.1%. the nasdaq up 1/2%, the s&p 500 gaining 1/4 of 1%, the vix to

the downside, light volume could bring volatility on this holiday, hewlett-packard has been on the turnaround plan, came out with great numbers and we're watching 7-1/4%, $26.91. connell: the store you need to watch is interest rates. we have been talking about it this week. charlie is the vice chairman of research, always good to have you. thank you for coming gone. all these conversations about bubbles, what if rates go up, the ten year above 3%, big trouble in the stock market. what is your take on this in terms of what interest rate, what direction we will go and what it will do to the stock market? >> we will take a long-term perspective and say interest rates are one of the big threats out there. i don't know if you have the

long-term graft but if you look at 35 or 40 years we had interest rates go up pretty much straight up from 64 until 1981. during that time the stock market, bonds went from 4% to 14% and the stock market went absolutely nowhere. it was that 800 at the beginning of that time period, still at 800, 17 years later. connell: sorry to interrupt. let's bring that up for a second. there were lines going up and down with these long-term look at rates and those lines going up and down vertically indicate a period when the economy was in recession so that is the relationship between where those rates are and where the economy is going. what about now? >> what happens since 1981, the dow has gone from a hundred to sixteen thousand and we would

argue a lot of that increase is because of the decline in interest rates. interest rates went from 14% on the ten year to 70 where we are today. that has a huge impact on the value of a stock. interest rate is the rate you will bring back future earnings to the present and if interest rates drop as they have over this time period stocks are worth more. it is a significant risk because interest rates will go up maybe not next month, up to 4%, that is a major head wind for the stock market. connell: as i said, dr. fabre was talking 3%, if you go to 3% on the interest rate, what is the big head wind? are you worried about a huge pool back from the crash, bubble bursting or something different? >> we want to be careful and say nobody including the store warren buffett will predict what will happen in the short term in the stock market but what we can

say is on the theoretically valuation basis if you get 100 basis point increase in interest rates, 1% reduces the value of stocks by 10% to 15%. the stock market could survive that and go through it if there are positive earnings but that is the head wind we are talking about. connell: one more question. last time you were wrong, here is charlie thinking about -- to change the subject, thinking about energy stocks, we did the whole segment. now that you are back what about the energy stocks? >> we do think it is one of a few areas in the stock market that really is cheap. names like exxon trading at 10 to 11 times earnings and a stock market that is 15 times earnings. we think the u.s. and exxon and u.s. energy companies are well-positioned, spectacularly cheap natural gas reserves. we will export natural gas which will become for the next 30 years what oil and petroleum have been for the past 30 years

and the u.s. is the saudi arabia of natural gas. connell: there are the plays on the screen to think about. thank you very much, happy thanksgiving. dagen: high-tech where for your head, this is a good idea. do you know connell mcshane wears a wig? connell: different one every day. i will change it during the break. big test for online retailers. full force looking to scam some would-be shoppers. we will tell you what to look out for. dagen: latest on this nasty weather that is basically stopping the east coast. and mario molina is standing by with the forecast. ♪

joining is not to explain it all, fox news contributor. welcome. what are the democrats -- well, do you think just political strategy, is this a good thing for them to be doing? >> absolutely. think about the conversation that has happened since they completely bungled the rollout of the website. people have been completely afraid of even attempting to go on the site. now this is starting to work, people are actually able to go through it and not have the problems that we saw when it first launched. we do need democrats to go out there and talk about how this law benefits you and to find those stories because, you know what, on the other side, republicans have this, i playbook that is chock full of scare tactics. and they go out and find these really scary stories about hello obamacare is going to kill you.

dagen: those stories, some of them are easy to find, not just with the bungled website and people who have had their insurance canceled in the design for new insurance. younger people's premiums are going up. those stories are not that hard to find, at least not that -- not right now. >> it may not be hard to find the stories, republicans have a very specific playbook, but it is actually easier to find the stories of people who, as they go through the website, as they find out how they're going to save money through obamacare, the ones to for the first time are not afraid of being kicked off of their insurance. you remember back in 2010 when so many people were being kicked off to because they get sick. that fear is gone, and so it is easier to find those stories, democrats and the administration has just been focused on fixing the website which they should have been. now it is time to do some of reached. connell: the poll numbers a been tough. the timing is interesting. you have been on with us before

and a back and forth. he said the role of was a disaster. pretty obvious. the president with the say one thing to another get it very hard not saying you can keep your insurance if you like it. that did not turn out to be the case. now if you are the democrats and start defending the website and say it works in the news stories say it does not work you did your credibility again. it is almost better to wait to read just let it play out. let it bottom of the muscle to speak. then make your case. otherwise they're is a risk associated with this. >> it is working in ways much better than it was in october. i think the numbers we're seeing is that people are getting -- twice as many people are able to access. dagen: the white house is still urging caution to democrats about telling people to go on it. that was the top story on the new york times of such today. the white house is worried that there will be a flooo of people trying to get on the website. >> they are about to start a very massive outreach campaign.

these outbreaks occur periodically. i understand that there is an outbreak in california, which is unrelated. actually, this is a very deadly bacterium. as you know, it can affect students, hospitals, nursing homes, and where there are clusters of people at any one time this bacterium can cause death in rapid fashion. connell: the european company referenced is novartis. but in terms of the medicine and what we're talking about, if you have a son or daughter or knew someone at princeton university and had concerns about the vaccine, and there have been eight cases, concerned about the vaccine, what kind of advice would you give them? >> i would have absolutely no concern. it is far better to get the vaccine into not. this organism, by the time symptoms are obvious, by the time that hemorrhages are on the skin come by the time and the capacity begins to abate is too

late. you can lose the patient in 24 hours. dagen: what about other diseases and outbreaks that the united states is not -- that are not easily treatable, we are not necessarily ready to treat? are you seeing more of that occur in the u.s.? >> not really. we are seeing, we are very prepared. this just happens to be unusual since this is an unusual form of this bacteria called neisseria meningitis. we have at outbreaks in the past of other types, but we have not had type b that commonly. this is perfect. the fact that the fda has not worked with it does not mean much to us because it is very, very safe. it has been used in europe and asia. the problem is that the fda needs official clinical trials and hearings before it uses it, but again, the risk benefit ratio, the benefits far outweigh the risk of any adverse effects. connell: it will allow it been the -- the fda will allow it to be imported. is there a prooess or is this

to know the issues and to cast their vote. on another issues area we give people the ability to track for follow issues like you would follow someone at facebook and give them the ability to track or follow legislation and actually support or oppose that legislation in the apps and aggregate news from a variety of sources across the country so you can imagine an article that might appear in related to education and the l.a. times on health in the chicago tribune and give them the ability to track and follow the news. dennis: that is a lot of power in the palm of your hands. a huge obstacle i see here. many people don't care about politics at all. they want nothing to do with the. we have never been so disillusioned with washington and both parties and i never phought the limiting factor was that didn't have the right air when in my hand.

dennis: consumer is getting a break and turkey prices. let's head to the spring of its of the cme. still frozen turkey down $0.03, fresh turkey prices down 2. >> everything is cause to celebrate but national turkey federation is not happy with it. prices should be lower than they are today because the cost of corn has gone down. one reason we are not seeing prices fall is those turkeys we are buying our last year's corn. the price of corn last year, they send these turkeys, 6, to $8 a bushel, a far cry from the $4.26 a bushel we are getting today so the national turkey federation really thinks we should see those prices go lower because of the corn crop we saw in the united states.

another thing, i don't know if you knew this but this is the best time of year to buy turkey because the grocers will sell their turkey at a break-even at a loss to get into the store to buy those other goodies so this is a good time, enjoy your turkey. dennis: thank you very much, phil flynn. thanksgiving is here and it is time to talk turkey. my next guest is here with some fast solutions to unexpected thing getting dinner crises. joining me is the chef and star of restaurant divided every thursday on the food network, a and a big faa. lovable shafting. at the thanksgiving. you are outsourcing the cookie turkey, you are not cutting anything. >> as a matter of fact i host of a holidays and this year again an unusual reprieve. my husband will be hosting on thanksgiving. dennis: if you are sick of turkey what do you do for thanksgiving? >> we eat it once a year.

you cannot be sick of turkey but you could try turkey breast or make it a sea food extravaganza. i think turkey and the thanksgiving menu is one of the most perfectly written menus ever. dennis: stuffing inside the bird. i love that. >> not inside the bird. the danger zone, 40 degrees to 4 degrees is the perfect temperature bacteria to grow. the inside of the taking a pass is 145 degrees. if it does your turkey will be as dry as the bun. dennis: so it has been contaminated? >> it will make you sick. you think you are sleeping, it is toxic neurological -- dennis: another way to prepare a turkey deep-fried could set a fire. >> if you put a frozen turkey in hot oil you have created an explosive device. don't do that. does a good video how to deep-fried turkey. it takes 40 minutes, great way to cook a turkey.

dennis: my problem, the breast is down and starts to get dry, legs and thighs are not done. bobby flay on the food network saturday, cut those legs and put them up and let the breast sit for an hour. is that a good idea? >> the muscle tissue of breast is completely different, each transfers and a different rate, the breast will cook faster so what you need to do if you want to be like a chef like bobby flay his does good work is separate command cook and separately. you could also put the breast. most people like white meat. you could pose a 4 pound turkey breast in 40 minutes. and all so -- that is -- think about this. 4500 calories is what most people consume on thanksgiving day. you can cut three days on the treadmill. you could cut that to 320 calories. dennis: what about leaving it out for an hour.
